Requality 0.18 released

Version 0.18 of Requality has been released, with some new important additions and fixes.

The new features include:

Extension of type system for requirement attributes:
- REFERENCE is a new type that represents a reference to another entity in the same Requality project. It is a first step to support traceability between Requality entities (e.g., high-level and low-level requirements);
- lists are supported for any type of elements (previously it can be list of strings only).
Significant improvements in automatic detection of requirements in a new version of a document by Update Processor.
Usability improvements in user interface:
- editors of requirement attributes are built into table view of the attributes;
- requirement attributes can be sorted by any field in the table view;
- new reports interface – report and report settings are now the different entities.
EXPERIMENTAL built-in report template for statistics from SVN. It provides:
- graphical representation of number of requirements by revisions;
- statistics of total number of requirements and test purposes for any SVN revision and their percentage from last revision’s count.
EXPERIMENTAL new representation of attribute generator for requirements and test purposes.

Also various bugs have been fixed in:

Headers document processor – fix error in case of absence of headers in selected document.
Update processor now saves the state of the original version of document before launching the requirements transferring.
Test steps sorting - the sequence of steps is always in order of test steps numbers regardless of project settings on sorting type.
Encoding in reports - fixes for non-UTF encoding.
Undo actions – undo was not working with alternative description editing.

A complete list of changes can be found in changelog.
